CBS Orders Additional Second Season Episodes of Code Black
In its first season, Code Black was on the renewal/cancellation bubble. The producers retooled the series, and made cast changes, in order to secure a second season on CBS.
In season one, Code Black averaged a 1.27 rating in the 18-49 demographic. The show drew an average of 7.11 million total viewers (live + same day ratings).
In the renewal press release, CBS reports Code Black is averaging 7.94 million viewers, 2.1/06 in adults 25-54 and 1.5/05 in adults 18-49. The network cites those numbers as Nielsen’s most current ratings (9/19/2016-11/10/2016).
What do you think? Have you been watching Code Black, season two? Do you think it will be cancelled or renewed for a third season?
We absolutely love the show!! We are hoping for a season 3. Is Momma gone forever? I hope not…
Love the show. The writing, acting, character development is wonderful. Hoping for a season 3
I have watched every episode of Code Black. I love this show. I encourage my friends to watch also. After each show there are lots of conversation about it. Please keep it on and Rob Lowe is a big asset to the show.
And don’t forget Marcia Gay Harden is as well!
My husband and I have watched Code Black since it premiered. We absolutely love it and have encouraged our friends to tune in every Wednesday evening. We look forward to the extra episodes for Season Two and Season Three!!
Love Code Black. Mama and Daddy are great.
Want it renewed for season 3!!! Didn’t start watching til this year. So much better than many other shows
I’d be very disappointed to see this show go.
I think Code Black is a great show. The story line, acting and focus on relationships is very good. Please keep it in the lineup!
Code black is great – it’s one of my ‘must sees’ every week – there is so much lame programming out there ,,,I hope CBS can see a way to keep this show going for a lot longer than 3 episodes…but it’s a start
Code Black is currently the best series on TV: fast-paced, with outstanding writing, and a wonderful ensemble cast, Please give us more of this top-quality show!
TV needs this type of quality drama!!
I absolutely LOVE Code Black!!!! I was an ER fan and think this is this generations version! I’m also originally from LA,California and an EMT so this show really hits home with me!!! PLEASE DO NOT cancel this show too!! Code Black and Pure Genius are my go to weekly shows that I can’t wait to watch!!
Truly enjoy love this series. Please don’t cancel. Keep new episodes coming. Great cast, my favorite drama series on TV.
VERY HAPPY to see CBS recognizing this outstanding hospital drama. Kudos to the entire ensemble that makes this gem work!
3 extra episodes of Code Black will be 3 extra episodes to be treasured. St. Elsewhere limped along for 6 seasons before it was cancelled, and I still talk about it with high regard. Code Black (like St. Elsewhere) has an exceptionally loyal audience, and I am proud to place Code Black up there with St. Elsewhere as the very best in television medical drama.
of my very favourite show this season and last. Enjoy the interaction between the characters. Such a great family working together under extreme situations
